::'Tis the Season!::
Onesome: 'Tis-- Hmmm... More or less an older contraction? Do you have any semi-archaic words you use regularly? (Yes, Laurie, "allegro" would qualify...) oh, heck-ya! I say heck, holy moly, great googley moogley and other oldies but goodies. A lot!
Twosome: the-- heck you say? Okay, how about a 'regional' saying you're known to be fond of? You know, the one the relatives just don't get when you say it on the phone... Sure, slang will work
Threesome: Season--ings for the season? Mulled cider? Peppermint bark? Apple pie? What do you look forward to in the Winter months? ahhhh, peppermint bark!
I look forward to lazy evenings with a nice cuppa tea or hot cocoa.

I have a delightful student from Michigan (correction - I HAD a delightful student from Michigan - the term ended today) who was ALWAYS on me about saying "wicked." He thought it was a funny little quirk of mine, which only made me say it more...
When I used to live up in New England, people were liked to say "h-e-double toothpicks" which totally drove me up the wall.
I wrote about "wicked" in my entry for T3 as well.
